In the Slammers books there is inference made to TO&E's differing between
mercenary units,as well as unit quality varying between them.Planets tended to
hire mercenary units based on what they could afford,and you got what you paid
for.

I have used differing TO&E's/unit quality in my solo DS2 games as I
think
this would be a function of what that unit/unit's leader could afford to
get as well.Plus it is interesting to see what certain types of units
will/can
do based on their makeup.I tend to use a good bit of infantry so have used
low-tech infantry merc units w/good bit of support weapons in various
situations.Can be quite fun as well as challenging.
